She's like this, and her father's and mother's clothes are even more unpresentable, patches and patches, and they can't be torn anymore.

Xue Yue'er was surprised: "Why are you wearing such tattered clothes!" Why not buy a new one? ”

Li Hao shook his head and smiled: "Lady, do you think everyone can be like us, buy if you want, and throw it away if you want?" It's good that they're well fed! ”

Xue Yue'er shook her head and sighed, and suddenly asked, "Little sister, can you wear such good clothes when you get married?" ”

Xiaomi lowered her head shyly, pulled the rice grains with her head and said, "You should be able to wear a new dress, but it can't be as new as my sister's!" ”

"Is this true? This dress is only worth a few taels of silver! Little sister, how do you know you can't wear such good clothes? If you marry a rich family one day, you won't be able to wear it. ”

Xue Yue'er was stunned now, such clothes, all the way they fled, in order to get rid of the killer, I don't know how many pieces were thrown away, but I didn't expect that the village girl in front of me couldn't wear them at the first-class happy event of getting married.

Xiaomi bowed her head and said: "I am already engaged, Brother Xiao Nan's family is poor, and he definitely can't afford to buy such beautiful clothes." ”

Xue Yue'er was speechless for a long time, she used to see many people dressed shabby on the street, and she didn't care, she never thought that some of them, even the great joy of getting married, still had to wear shabby clothes, she couldn't help but feel pity for them, and the corners of her eyes became a little moist.

Xue Yue'er suddenly said, "Little sister, do you want to go to my house to be a housekeeper?" Every Chinese New Year, they will receive a brand new dress, although it is not as good as the one on me, but it is definitely better than yours. ”

The old man, Xiaomi's father shook his head and said, "Thank you for this young lady's kindness, we won't sign the deed of sale." Although it is better to work in a large family than in the countryside, we have to be beaten and scolded at every turn, and there is still endless work to be done every day, and it is better to live freely and happily at home. ”

Xue Yue'er said in a sneering voice: "Is there such a thing? How am I not clear? ”

Li Hao smiled and said: "If people don't want to, don't persuade you." If you have pity on her, give her this dress, and I will buy you another one? ”

Xue Yue'er said: "Although this dress has only been bought for a day, it has always been worn, right?" ”

The old man hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Miss, you can't do this!" Wait a minute, you don't have enough clothes to wear, it's cold outside, you're going to catch a cold! ”

Li Hao saw that it had been some time since he came, and said with a smile: "Lady, our clothes have been baked, it's time to go back, you must get wet when you go back, and you have to change your clothes again!" ”

Xue Yue'er said: "But ......"

"Thank you, aunt and uncle, it's time for us to go back. If you change your mind, you can go to Yexiang to find us at the restaurant, and we will only stay for one night. ”

Li Hao dragged her over, held up the oil-paper umbrella and left.

"Little sister, if you want new clothes, come to the restaurant to find us, and I will give you a brand new one! I have so many clothes that some of them only wear for a few days and then throw them away. ”

Xue Yue'er was dragged away by Li Hao, she didn't fight hard, she just glared at him a little angrily.

It wasn't until he left the village that Xue Yue'er asked him strangely: "Xiao Li, I didn't expect you to be so ruthless, your original partner was engaged, you don't care about it!" You Lilly forgetful fellow! ”

Li Hao smiled silently, Xue Yue'er hated it so much that she reached out and wanted to scratch him.

Li Hao hurriedly said: "Do you want to give away a few more clothes?" I'm afraid that little sister won't come to you! ”

Xue Yue'er was slightly flustered, and then understood what was going on, looked back at the small village behind her, and said with a smile: "I want to send it again, but I can't find anyone to send it!" ”

Suddenly, Xue Yue'er asked him strangely: "Husband, why are you in a hurry to leave after only chatting for a while?" ”

Li Hao said leisurely: "I still have to go to worship my grandfather in the afternoon, how can I have time to delay." When you're done, you have to hurry up! ”

Xue Yue'er stopped laughing and asked, "Is your grandfather very good to you?" Why did I ask you before, and I always flashed and didn't want to mention it? Can you tell me about it now? ”

Li Hao recalled the bitter time in his childhood, sighed, did not shirk again, and slowly said to Xue Yue'er.

His family had been thieves for generations, and after his father learned the skill of stealing from his priest, his skills were better, and he rarely missed, and his life was rich. His grandfather temporarily closed his skills and took a hiding, and used the accumulated silver taels to buy some land in a small village to live.

Gradually, his father was arrogant and arrogant, and he was so bold that he stole an eldest lady from a rich family and carried it home as a wife.

The rich man lost his money and daughter, and Thunder was furious, and immediately went to the government to report the case, and offered a reward for his arrest, and his father had to take his stolen mother away from home.

The young lady was frightened all the way, and she didn't think about eating and drinking, and she became more and more skinny. After several attempts to find death, he gradually became like a puppet of the walking dead, he didn't think about tea and dinner, he didn't care about anything he ate and washed, and let his father toss it.

After some time, she became pregnant with him. At this point, his mother accepted her fate and fled with his father every day. But every time they just settled down, they would be chased all the way by hearing the news, forcing them to flee overnight.

There is no other reason, at the beginning, the young lady didn't swallow the general coarse tea and light rice, and she didn't swallow it until she was fed, and she was always sick, so the silver stolen by his father couldn't stand the flowers, so she could only continue to commit crimes against the wind.

After going through hardships, they finally fled to a remote mountain village after stealing a large sum of silver. And his mother, because she was so hungry, gradually got used to eating some coarse grains.

In that remote mountain village, his mother gave birth to him. And when he was just born, his mother died in childbirth.

His father went berserk, left a letter to his grandfather, and disappeared with his mother's body in his arms, and his life and death are still unknown.

When the villagers heard the baby's cry and saw the door open, they hurried to deliver the child to a woman who had just given birth, saving his life for the time being, and sending the letter that had been kept.

When his grandfather arrived in this small village, he had been drinking milk and water from a kind aunt for more than ten days.

His grandfather had been stealing for decades, and Rao was skilled and had been caught several times. Naturally, he suffered a lot of sticks and went to prison several times, leaving behind old wounds.

Those pains, when he was young, he didn't feel anything, but in his later years, every time he had an attack, he was sour and numb, and he couldn't touch it if he wanted to, which made him feel pain, and he could only get drunk from time to time.

When his father stole his daughter and fled, the real estate had been confiscated by the government, and his grandfather drank more fiercely since then, and often fell drunk on the side of the road unconscious.

When the suicide letter was delivered, he was suddenly shocked, his expression became sober, and he rushed day and night for several days before he was picked up by a kind aunt.

Then, his grandfather was in the ruined temple, drunk and sober all the time, and raised him with stolen goat's milk.

His mother was overly frightened when she fled, and when she conceived him, she was already skinny and skinny, and after she conceived him, she still had trouble eating and drinking. In addition, not long after he was born, he changed milk-water for a few days, and he was often full for a day, hungry for a day, and sick again, so Li Hao ended up skinny.

Strangely, he was able to survive unharmed!

His grandfather was already homeless and had no savings at that time, and he slowly raised him by stealing. Since he was sensible, his grandfather could only pass on his skills, training him from a young age, taking chestnuts from fire, making money from oil, and making all kinds of incense and so on.

For this reason, when he was young, he was always pointed at his nose and scolded as a thief, and he went to steal in the middle of the night, and he was not less bitten by dogs.

Sometimes people lose something, even if they don't catch their grandparents and grandchildren on the spot, and they don't find anything, they will come and beat them up.

Their grandparents and grandchildren had no choice but to change places and leave their hometowns.

When his grandfather was nine years old, he was caught stealing again, and he was beaten violently, beating him to death. When he arrived, his grandfather, while he was still conscious, forced him to swear that he would rather beg than steal again.

After his grandfather died, he fainted crying on the spot, and the surrounding villagers hated his grandfather and grandson so much that they would not help him, so he could only drag his back and bury his grandfather on a mountain.

The new grave in a foreign land was lonely, and there was not even one to see them off.

After burying his grandfather, he followed his dying advice and left the town that spurned him, staggering and begging all the way, and did not steal again. The poor people of this town basically knew them, and no one would give him a thief, so that he fainted from hunger several times.

There was no one to give, so he could only pick up some rancid food from the restaurant to satisfy his hunger, climb the woods to pick the green wild fruits, and chew the bitter grass leaves when there was no fruit.

In short, he tasted all the pain at that time.

begged all the way, until he arrived in Yexin Town, fell into a coma in Yexianglai Restaurant, met a kind restaurant shopkeeper, took him in, and let him become a shopkeeper, and his life became stable.

Before Li Hao finished talking about the past, Xue Yue'er had already become blurred with tears and hugged Li Hao tightly. I can't imagine how hard that life must be? The price of stealing ants is too painful! If it were her, would she have the courage to survive?

When Li Hao stopped talking quietly, Xue Yue'er took a breath, wiped away the moist tears in front of her eyes, and said softly: "Husband, I thought that the life of Xiaomi's family was hard enough, but I didn't expect your life to be even harder!" I will love you well in the future and not let you suffer so much again! ”

Li Hao smiled and said: "Lady, those hard days have become a thing of the past, there is nothing to be afraid of!" ”

Xue Yue'er suddenly asked, "Husband, your mother is still Miss Qianjin, which big family is it?" Shall we pay a visit? ”

Li Hao had never seen his father and mother since he was a child, and when he thought of this, his eyes suddenly became blurred, and he shook his head and said, "Grandpa didn't say it!" ”

Xue Yue'er wiped away her tears for him in distress, and said reproachfully: "Husband, it's all my fault, I shouldn't mention this!" ”

Li Hao was silent, and his mood became a little depressed.

Xue Yue'er was anxious, shook Li Hao and said, "Husband, even if you open your mouth to scold a few words, don't be silent!" ”

At this time, they had already walked to the city of Yexin Town, and Xue Yue'er's actions immediately attracted the attention of passers-by, and pointed at the two of them.

Xue Yue'er was furious and shouted, "Look at what, get out of the way!" ”

Li Hao and the two of them are people in the rivers and lakes who wear swords in gorgeous clothes, and Xue Yue'er's angry shout scared a group of timid people away in an instant, and the bold ones kept their mouths shut, not wanting to invite unwarranted disasters.

Yexin Town was too small, and the two of them returned to Yexianglai Restaurant in a short time, put on a poncho, rode a horse, and ran quickly towards the north of the town.

After crossing two small towns and a small village that he couldn't remember, Li Hao stopped in a small shop, bought a bunch of paper money, incense and candles, and wrapped them tightly in several large sheets of oiled paper.

When Xue Yue'er ordered to buy some more paper horses, paper houses and other big things, Li Hao glared coldly, and she was speechless for a moment.

Then sitting on the back of the horse, I thought that I wanted to light the paper horse on a rainy day and burn the paper building, unless I first covered a greenhouse to cover the rain, the premise was that the paper horse and the paper building were sent to the mountain dry and undamaged!

Xue Yue'er once again found that many of her moments were just thinking about it, just like when she secretly came out with Li Hao back then.

Li Hao is now galloping on horseback, riding on the back of the horse without speaking, Xue Yue'er didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, silently accompanied him, looking at his thin body, she always had a bottomless feeling in her heart.

Immersive, she will always forget what others have told her, a handful of sand, the tighter she grasps, not only can she not grasp it firmly, but it will leak faster. Although her Li Hao is unlikely to miss it, she always has a worry that she is about to miss it.

Gradually walking to the narrow mountain forest, Li Hao in front, Xue Yue'er behind, two horses splashed on the path, the two bodies and horses rubbed the branches on both sides of the rustle, and the rain on it shook all over the ground.

It didn't take long for the two of them to ride directly to a low hill and stop in front of a lonely grave.

This hill is only a few miles away from the town below. Think about it, Li Hao was just a skinny boy at the beginning, how far could he drag his grandfather out of the strap?

The tombstones in front of the grave are toppling, overgrown with weeds, a few low trees are growing, indescribably desolate, and if you don't look closely, you can't tell that this is a cemetery.

When I left last year, the tombstone that was re-erected, I don't know which damn guy knocked it down. Perhaps, this time it was really brought down by ignorant livestock.

Li Hao arrived at the grave, turned over and dismounted, and drew his sword to cut the grass.

Xue Yue'er couldn't believe it: "This is grandpa's cemetery?" ”

The drizzle, the cold wind, and the lonely grave were cold and deserted, Li Hao continued to chop the grass branches and small trees, silently not answering. Xue Yue'er felt like a dense cloud in the sky, depressed and uncomfortable, and hurriedly helped to tidy up the grass branches next to her.

Cutting off the weeds in front of the tomb, Li Hao dug out a deeper mud pit with his bare hands, moved the tombstone and erected it, and patted it with the palm of his hand.

Fortunately, Li Hao has practiced iron sand hands for more than two months, and these soft soil are not a big problem for him, Xue Yue'er dare not persuade and cannot be persuaded.

When Xue Yue'er drew her knife and quickly cut out a large area of flat grass and dragged the weeds aside, Li Hao also wiped the moss and mud on the tombstone, revealing the carving marks that were not long in coming.

When he buried his grandfather, he didn't have enough silver taels, so he asked no one to help his grandfather erect a monument. This monument is still carved by Li Hao in the Yexianglai Restaurant, and his savings in the past half a year. Originally, it didn't take so much, Li Hao had to hire someone from a neighboring town to carve and transport, and the cost of this long-distance transportation was a lot more than that of building in this town.

Touching the tombstone, thinking about the hardships he had experienced before, now he is an angry horse in gorgeous clothes, gold and silver, and piles of jewelry, Li Hao, who is about to marry and start a family, can't help but blur his tears.

Xue Yue'er cut off the grass branches, silently dipped the grass branches in water, helped wash the mud on the tombstone, and bore this deep grief with Li Hao.

Different from Li Hao's painful memories, Xue Yue'er kept praying, praying that her grandfather would be less oppressed by the ghosts in the netherworld, accumulate more yin virtues, and be reincarnated as soon as possible, so as to bless Li Hao with happiness and wealth in his life from now on.
